Necro Sucks

yep, necro sucks, literraly


.
.

( by that I mean they suck everything up ;p )

Here's another 3 on 1. I have had a number of such victories, but this is the first time I took a screenshot, well (of the conversation at least). When you're having 2 or 3 ppl beating on you, the prtscr button won't be the first thing that comes to mind, right?







btw I don't like to think that other ppl sucks. Those 3 rangers I fought certainly didn't suck ;p Rather I'm just very very skilled =P




Now having established my credibility, let me make a few statements.

1) Why can't my n/w get any group at all in tomb? When I'm probably worth more than 2 warriors. Once again this is not the only such victory. I have fought against 2 warriors and won. Fought 2 warriors and a lightning ele, and won. Necros don't suck! Least of all N/W. It's the players behind it that sucks. There're a few others beside. Yes I GvG, but somewhat tomb, coz few ppl would let me into their group.

2) Why do ppl think that UNLOCK all skills is necessary. Guess how much a skill costs to me from trader? 150!!! that's right! 150 gold piece, and I hardly do any questing. I spend most of my time PvPing or farming so I can dress up my char. I hardly ever find the need to change my skill completely. Sure one or two skills have been changed to accomodate for differet trends, but never more than that.

All of that is so long and confusing that all I heard was you bragging about your prowness as a necromancer.

Dude, they're using the team chat (at first).

Basically what happen was this. They had 3 players, one joined in the fun late.

I didn't help my team because of some earlier disagreement, involving the tank not doing his job as I perceive he should.

Then all my team mates were dead, so they're screaming at me, seeing how I didn't intend to die so soon ;p. Including my team mate who thought I's a clueless noob. That's when the local chat started to get interesting.

Btw, why not just read through it. Am I bragging? You betcha. Why? I don't feel appreciated in tomb! Why? Because I wanna tell those PvPers out there,

"Hey I'm just as good as you are" I DON'T Need all skills!

Why coz I'm tired of hearing this corny PvPers who are probably noobs, who think that they need all skills to be successful. I'm the prove that's not necessarily the case.

If you wanna I can even post an ss of how much skill cost at a trader for me. It's not even 200 gp!

Huh? Necros are bad tho, you would be correct in saying that. You only run a necro primary in tombs for something like putrid or bip.

Hang on, you abandoned your team because the warrior didn't do as you say ? No wonder no-one will team you...

Necro's aren't all that bad. I would enjoy having a necro teammate with well of blood and blood ritual (for example-Claude the cultist)

ok im going to add this noones saying you have to have all skills to be good who cares how many skills youve bought from the skill trader necro primaries are only good for nothing.....maybe putrid explosion but i think mes/nec does that just fine.....necros arent appeciated as much in Tombs because a mesmer or good ele owns necro.


and you dont sound to much like a team player yourself *name written down not to party with this guy.......*

Pfftt like I ever wanna party with a stinking n00b like you. What's your in game name. I sure don't wanna party with you either. Especially not one who doesn't know how good a good necro can be! Sigh you're just like those other losers I meet at the tomb.

Btw think an air ele can beat my necro? I'm an officer of my guild. I can probably issue an unranked challenge, and we can duke it out by the flag. Show me an ele that can beat my necro, I'll show you a necro that can beat your ele.

What's the stakes? I'll post your dead body here at the forum.

Interested? Pm me details for the match

No question about this. A good mezmer is the bane for all casters. Btw I have a mezmer too. I know what a good mezmer can or can't do. They can probably give me a lot of pain, but alone, I'm not sure they can do enough to kill me.

The point isn't that a good mezmer ownz my necro (which is still questionable). The point is that, necro ownz too in their own right.

1v1 matches don't prove much. Winning a 1v1 match doesn't make a case for necros being useful in a group(they can be in some tombs builds, it's just that soul reaping usually isn't very good for most situations and a secondary necro can do almost as much as a primary w/o the usually crappy primary attribute of soul reaping).

You forgot to put that "soul reaping isn't good" is a matter of opinion. Sorry, can you tell me how many ppl die in tomb?

At least

8 + 1 (ghost) + 1 (priest; optional)

10 with an attribute of 10 in sr I get about 100 extra energy phased out although somewhat unevenly in like, say how long the average tomb matches last vs. one group. Oh wait about 15 minutes.

So me a favor. 100 energy in 15 minutes, is that good?

Then you say what of longer matches? Well in longer matches, someone probably gets rezzed up so the above number are still good.

But wait you don't usually fight only one other group in tomb. You fight what 6 other groups!!!

And that usually takes than 45 minutes. Because you don't fight them all, they fight among themselves.

100 energy/group * 6 groups = 600 extra energy in 45 minutes. A LOT!

Btw I play 2 necros 1 air ele. If I should feel sr needs buffing, I'd be the first one to cry a complain for it.

Well since you've obviously mastered this game, perhaps it's time to move to the next challenge... the English language.

Your attitude stinks. Thanks for the pictures. They make knowing who to ignore rather easy. I, for one, will never be in your party. I guess that makes me a n00b.

Uhh...ever thought that English isn't the only language in the world? I happen to be a non-native English speaker.

You will notice from my previous posts that I never said soul reaping was bad in tombs, only that it had LIMITED usefullness in other forms of pvp due to it being backloaded, not frontloaded like say energy storage.

Some moderator needs to close this now. The starter seems to pick fights with anybody that stands and yes, i'll say it, he's a idiot. He's the kind of guy that'll probably leave in the middle of the mission if you don't worship him. He's probably the kind of guy that'll abandon his teamates over a silly quarrel... how do I know? He convieniently posted pictures for us to see. All classes are special, if you feel offended by someone bad-mouthing your class, you need to get mature and just stop caring. You've remained in a idiotic state and decided to flame and challenge every one of those people to a match. Nobody here really criticised a necromancer, rather how you initiated the post and showed what a jackass you are... and continued to show it by responding to the people multiple times. Therefore, I congratulate you on the two points which you have so clearly made today.

1. Showing Necromancers can be good
2. Showing what a idiot and complete jerk you are.

Mods need to close this down fast... this crap just ticks me off.

Talk is cheap, come and fight me.

or are you a chicken? pock pock pock pock pock pock pock pock pock

Btw I'll fight anything except a mezmer. A good mez, secondary or primary who knows who he's fighting can win any 1 on 1 matches. I know this playing a mezmer myself.

So yep I can't win against a mezmer, but big deal, air eles can't win against a mezmer and still popular. Monks can't win against a good mezmer, they're always in demand.

The only limitation to a mezmer are the 8 skill slots. Knowing who the opponent is, almost guarantees their victory.
